Best line from a song ??

[grayhairdontcare]

Just seen this on FB so thought I would post it here.
Mine is ...
Dearly beloved, we have gathered here today to get through this thing called life

Can you imagine it? I'm the last Plantagenet.
😁

One day I can see us walking
Arm in arm in sheltered Kelvin way
Talking and tripping and teasing
And heading for the best part of the day
When your head
Falls softly on my pillow
No fear will make you cry or turn you grey

He says, "Son can you play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet
And I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes."

And so we embrace again, behind the dunes
This beach is so cold on winter afternoons
But holding you close is like holding the summer sun
I'm warm from the memory of days to come

She can hear in the distance the sound of the cars
And she sees the snow falling down on the hill
Now the trees and the houses are white as the stars
And she doesn't wanna cry, but she probably will
As she thinks about all of life's mystery
And how slowly the answers unfold
She's becoming gold

The streets and the market and the old dog and bell
We've gone through the changes, we've lived our lives well
But the old town has gone now and it's winter too soon
Still we waltz beneath our valentine moon

I drink my coffee, you drink your tea

I never tire of this. Even though I know it's recording I expect them to run out of breath!

You are what you love, not who loves you.
Fall Out Boy

The doors you open, I just can’t close.

Breathe out, so I can breathe you in.

"It's not hard to fall for a waitress, when you both smoke the same cigarettes. You'll get seated as diners or lovers. You'll get the check as friends for the better. You'll carve your names into the Paupack Cliffs. Just to read them when you get old enough to know that happiness is just a moment"

Every time I hear the name Karl Marx I think of this line. Great song!

If it all fell to pieces tomorrow, would you still be mine?

As mentioned by pp Midnight train to Georgia ' I'd rather be with him in his world than be without him in mine'

I always took it that he had died, and she didn't want to be alive anymore. The whole song is just euphemisms.

Oh, after all the loves of my life,
I'll be thinking of you, and wondering why.

If you get a flu attack
For 30 days you're on your back.

Great advice 😃

The more you refuse to hear my voice
The louder I will sing
You hide behind walls of Jericho
Your lies will come tumbling
Deny my place in time, you squander wealth that's mine
My light will shine so brightly it will blind you
Because there's
… Something inside so strong, strong

Never thought of Midnight Train to Georgia as a death song! The writer said it was about someone giving up their dreams and returning home, and his lover makes the decision to go with him, and change her life for him.

"If you live it up, you won't live it down"

And a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead .

Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play a guitar just like a-ringin' a bell

My heart it is racing, but afraid I am not.
(P!nk)

This is the story of my life, I write it every day
and I hope you're by my side, when I'm writing the last page.
(Bon Jovi)

@Clawdy Same for me!

All of the miles of words we've spoken
All of the lines that got away
Didn't we take the time to say them all?
Said it all
Nothing to say at all
Nothing to say that matters
Haven't we heard enough?

And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're going through

Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart, right in front of you

When you get right to the heart of matters, it's the heart that matters more
